I was running towards the car. I tripped, missed a step and started rolling. I started to slow down, enough to stop myself . Then I picked myself up and looked in the direction of the car, it was gone. Then before I knew it, I was back up on my feet.
"Come on I'll be back by eleven o'clock"
I stopped in my tracks to look at the girl who was talking. She was most likely in her teens . She had brown hair with deep green eyes . Wearing a long dark blue floral dress .
"No nine is your latest."
"Come on mom please!"
Somebody she called mom was following her down the porch steps towards the car. She stood with her hand on the handle, but she didn't open the door.
"Allie, please, I just don't trust him."
"Why not? He's a good guy!"
"Your father and I don't know that" she rubbed the bridge of her nose and sighed "You know
the rule I've used it with your older siblings. Now I'm not going to change my way for my youngest."
"you always tell me that but you still have Johnny and Tommy"
"I'm not going to fight with you about this, you are going to take your brothers to the Smiths so you are babysitting them too."
"Agh, fine" she said while rolling her eyes.
I didn't notice but while they were talking I was walking towards them . Then finally when I got too close, they noticed me, Allie came closer to me she got down on one knee and reached for my collar. I took a small step back to get out of her reach. She reached again for my collar, this time I didn't move, I couldn't move, she grabbed it.
"I can't read the name or number but I can make out the address. It's 106 Galena St. Council, Idaho"
"Ok you can stop there on the way to the Smiths"
"Ok I'll go get the boys"
Allie opened the door to the car. I hopped in hoping she would take me home. She closed the door and headed towards the house, then came out with two clones following her. The only difference was their shirts. One had a "thing one" shirt the other had a "thing two" shirt on.

They both got in one on each side of me, nobody was in the front seat so I jumped up there. I looked at Allie, I started to pout hopping she would roll the window down. Eventually she did, then she muttered something to herself then tried to lean forward to look out the window . I got in the way of the window, she got out of the car she came around to let me out, she opened the door I hopped out.
"Go on, your home!" I would go but that's not my house "Come on don't be scared" she reached for my collar so I backed up. Then I had an idea, since this wasn't my house so, I could just show her. So i went in between her legs. She hurried to turn around. "Hey get back here!". I didn't look back at all I just kept running!
I took a shortcut through a wheat field I knew where I was going. I just couldn't see the direction I was heading.
